Application filed April 22, 1920. Serial No. 375,682.

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, Ennnsr V. BLooM- om's'r, a citizen of the UnitedStates, residing at Minneapolis, in the county of: Henncpin and State ofMinnesota, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in OashiersTickets; and I do hereby declare the 'following to be a full, clear, andexact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilledin the art to which 1t appertains to make and use the same.

My present invention has for 1ts ob eet to provide an extremely simpleand highly ellicient cashiers ticket for use in restaurants and thelike, and to this end, it consists of the novel devices and combinationsof devices hereinafter described and defined in the claim.

In the accompanying drawings, wh ch illustrate the invention, likecharacters 1ndicate like parts throughout the several views.

Referring to the drawings:

Figure 1. is a face view of a pad of the improved cashiers tickets;

Fig. 2 is an end elevation of the same; and

Fig. 3 is a face view of one'of the tickets detached. from the pad andhaving certain portions thereof detached to indicate the amount to bepaid.

The numeral 4 indicates a pad of the improved. cashiers tickets 5, eachof which has its upper end portion transversely ruled to afford top,intermediate and bottom spaces, and its bottom portion has a transverseline dividing the same into upper and lower spaces. T he top space, atthe upper end of the ticket, may have printed thereon the name of therestaurant using the improved cashieifs ticket, and the intermediatespace, at the top portion of the ticket, and the top space, at the lowerportion thereof, each has a vertical line dividing the same into spaces6 and 7. i In the spaces 6 are printed the numerals 1 indicating thewaiters number, and in the spaces 7 are printed the numerals 001indicating the number of the respective ticket. Directions or otherprinted matter may be indicated on the bottom lowing spaces, ticket.

Between the end portions of the ticket 5, the same is longitudinally andtransversely perforated to divide the intermediate portion of the ticketinto three vertical rows and seven horizontal rows of detachable squares8. Certain of these squares 8 have printed therein, in denon'iinationsincreasing by five, the numerals live to ninety-live inclusive. Thesenumerals are arranged to read from the left to the right and from thebottom of the ticket up. The next fob square to the right, after thenumeral 95, has printed therein $1.? and the next following square tothe right has printed therein Over $1.

In Fig. 3 is shown the top ticket 5 de tached. from the pad 4 with aportion of its lower end torn off on an irregular line, leaving 40 asthe lowest numeral. The square having Over $1 printed thereon, is alsodetached, indicating that the customer is to pay to the cashier onedollar and forty cents. If the square having Over $1 was not detached,the ticket would indicate that both at the top and bottom of the l thecustomer should pay forty cents to the cashier.

The above described ticket, while having arranged. from five cents to adollar and ninety-five cents, is very compact and can. be printed onrelatively small pieces of 1 1 .VVhat I claim is:

A cashiers ticket having end spaces, longitudinal and transverse rows ofperforations between said end spaces dividing the intermediate portionof the ticket into detachable squares, certain of which have printedthereon, in denominations increasing by five. the numerals live toninety-five inclusive, the next following square after 95 having printedthereon $1, and the next following square after $1 having printed.thereon Over $1, said transverse rows of perforations being extendedcompletely across the ticket.
